| | | Anyone know anything about the "Sangre de Christo" seminary?

A seminary started by Gordon Clark's son-in-law. Found it by accident while exploring near that mountain range.

I had never heard of this seminary before your post but it seems like they have a number of very good visiting professors.
Dr. Craig Blomberg
Dr. Bruce A. Demarest
Dr. D. Ralph Davis
Dr. Simon Kistemaker
Here you have some of the best professors of New Testament, Old Testament and Systematic theology.

Never heard of the seminary. However, I do like Southern Colorado. The Sangre de Cristo mountains are beautiful.

It's one of the member schools of the Association of Reformed Theological Schools, which speaks well of it.

Apparently it is named for the mountain range. Great choice if you ask me.

| The mountain range is named Sangre de Cristo because of the reddish tint to the rock formations.

Has good relations with the RPCNA. A few professors from RPTS make trips out there to teach. My dad was saved under the preaching of Dwight Zeller, the founder; who was at that time a reformed anglican chaplain at the Merchant Marine Academy. Since then he went into the PCA and has preached in a number of RPCI congregations.

I'm actually planning on attending there next summer. They are heavy into exegesis in their curriculum.

If they have seminar type classes I was thinking of attending some of those.
